Road Book

27 July 2010, Vagamo-Vik

Today, as always, instead of the clouds, rain and wind planned by the weather report, the sky was clear and sunny.

The ascent of the Glittertind has been cancelled, and the participants are running on the Trolls and Fjords road.

For Les Carottes Sauvages and Tortue 45, the night before has been short. Desirous to reach earlier the Trolls road, they drove to Geiranger and missed the last boat of the day. After an attempt to sleep in the car, they took out their tents for a wild camping –forbiden at that place- in front of the departure.Woken up at 5:30 AM and worried to get in troubles, they cleaned every thing up. It is only a couple hours later, when they went on the boat that they found out about the little waiting room nearby, opened during the night and warmed…

After a day spent in the beautiful landscapes of the Trolls and the Fjords road, everyone is unanimous, it was worth the trip.

Tonight, at the Vik’s camping, all the teams are present.Everyone has remembered the information given : if you miss the last bac for Vangnes tonight, you will not be able to reach in time the harbour of Bergen where a ferry is taking us to Hirtshals tomorrow…
